When Microsoft launched Vista, it looked like a slick OS - what with being able to flick between windows Apple-style and other flashy things like that. But in reality, many people have commented to us that using Vista for much more than general office tasks has been a bit of an unsatisfactory experience.
Many of our customers are using SolidWorks on Vista, but we’ve held back here at Innova, and recommended XP when we’ve been asked about spec-ing a pc.
Out of curiosity, we’ve been using a pre-release version of Windows 7 on a laptop to run SolidWorks 2010 Beta. We even lent this out to a customer, and he said how great it was!
Windows 7 is officially launched on 22nd October, and SolidWorks 2010 SP1 will be certified for use on this platform. I am definitely going to use it as my main OS...
Please visit here for clarification of system requirements to run SolidWorks.
